Thank you for pointing this out, Ted. It actually solves a problem I was seeing with the qt4agg backend, where the widgets.Cursor crosshairs were not being drawn when blitting was disabled. I removed the lines from qtagg and qt4agg, and saw no problems in the examples or my own application, so I checked in the changes - svn 5002.
